We are afraid of the wrong things...

It’s funny how we are afraid of the wrong things. We find ourselves doing all sorts of things so that we can be accepted and admired by society. Who is society? Society creates a whole lot of unwritten rules and regulations which make humans believe that a specific type of behaviour is right.
When you don’t act in accordance to what society deems as right you are highly frowned upon.  Society puts a lot of pressure on you as an individual to be something it wants you to be and most people adopt this way of life, as it is portrayed as normal. Society is lead by minority and followed by majority.  Nobody wants to be an outcast (well maybe these days some people do, in extreme ways) and nobody wants to be rejected, because it hurts.
I personally think all the ‘rules and regulations’ put out there by society are a load of crap. I believe you should live the way you want to live. Do things because it’s what you want to do and because it is who you are. Don’t allow society to make you afraid of being you; don’t allow society to make you afraid of the wrong things. Society does not control you; you are the creator of your own life. You are your own boss. Live without fear of the wrong things.
